Ask the Expert: "Embroidered Emblem" vs. "Patch"

Q: What is the difference between a custom "embroidered emblem” and a custom “patch”?

A: Absolutely nothing! Both names relate to the same product. As professional embroiderers we often use the trade or industry phrase, "embroidered emblem." Most customers (and most Scouts) simply refer to them as “patches.” Basically, the word “patch” is slang for “embroidered emblem.” Whichever name you use, patches or emblems, the end result is the same. Embroidered emblems have been used by Scouts to commemorate events, activities and achievements for generations – every great Scouting event comes with a patch! Patch collecting (and trading) is part of the Scouting culture.
